The Criminal and What is Related to Him.—The criminal type is the type of the strong person under unfavourable conditions, a strong person made sick. He lacks a wilderness, a certain freer and more dangerous nature and form of existence, where all that is weapon and defence in the instinct of the strong person exists aright. His virtues are

Jane Eyre have a happy or a sad ending?
The common experience of this much loved novel is to weep while reading the final chapter. Are we crying with happiness, because Jane and Rochester are together at last? Or with pity-for them or for ourselves-because he is blind and maimed? Of course, it's not impossible that we are crying strictly on our own behalf, because the tale has to end, and we'll have to part from Jane.
Jane Eyre is one of the best known, most closely read and written about works in the Western canon. Some say it is a romance; others call it a mythic quest or the first romantic novel with female narrator.
Speaking of Jane I'd like to give some explanation of our narrator's character Jane.
Well.. Jane is nothing if not a rebel. She won't lie even if lies would smooth her progress. From the moment we meet her, she is struggling against the injustice of her lot, and she refuses to be convinced that humility is her only option. In many ways she is the first modern heroine in fiction.
Jane seems to be possessed of the greatest treasure a woman can have: self-respect.
I am sure everyone who reads the novel would be amazed by Jane's character as I was too. Before coming to the end of this description I will also mention the themes this novels deals with;
'morality' (Jane refuses to marry Rochester when she learns that he is already married)
'gender relations' ( she struggles against the Victorian patriarchal society)
'social mobility' and 'religion'
Jane Eyre is one of the first feminist heroines in the British fiction and the novel might be considered as a manifesto of feminism.
I hope this description will be helpful to all of you especially to those studying English l & l.
Carl Jung and the Shadow (Jack E. Othon)
(...) Have you ever said or done something really shitty, mostly on an impulse, that you later regretted? After the damage was done and the other person involved was hurt, you couldn’t bury your shame fast enough. “Why did I say that?” you might have asked yourself in frustration. It’s that “Why?” question that indicates the presence of a blind
The flight-or-fight response, it is argued, was indispensable in an era when early human beings had to confront a natural world of predators and other dangers. In civilized society, however, the flight-fight reaction is triggered in situations where it is neither necessary nor helpful, since we no longer face the same mortal threats to existence. The body’s physiological stress mechanisms are often triggered inappropriately, leading to disease.
There is another way to look at it. The flight-or-fight alarm reaction exists today for the same purpose evolution originally assigned to it: to enable us to survive. What has happened is that we have lost touch with the gut feelings designed to be our warning system. The body mounts a stress response, but the mind is unaware of the threat. We keep ourselves in physiologically stressful situations, with only a dim awareness of distress or no awareness at all. As Selye pointed out, the salient stressors in the lives of most human beings today—at least in the industrialized world—are emotional. Just like laboratory animals unable to escape, people find themselves trapped in lifestyles and emotional patterns inimical to their health. The higher the level of economic development, it seems, the more anaesthetized we have become to our emotional realities. We no longer sense what is happening in our bodies and cannot therefore act in self-preserving ways. The physiology of stress eats away at our bodies not because it has outlived its usefulness but because we may no longer have the competence to recognize its signals.
One side effect of speaking out, though, is that it has provoked more of the criticisms of the Gates Foundation's work that I've been hearing for years. The most thoughtful version goes like this: Bill Gates is an unelected billionaire - who is he to set the agenda on health or anything else? Three corolllaries of this criticism are that the Gates Fountain has too much influence, that I have too much faith in the private sector as an engine of change, and that I am a technophile who thinks new inventions will solve all our problems.
Its certainly true that I've never been elected to any public position, and I don't plan to seek one. And I agree that it's not good for society when rich people have undue influence.
But the Gates Foundation does not use its resources or its influence in secret.

A Brief History of Cults
Pied pipers attract only modest followings in eras when a society is functioning in a way that conveys structure and a sense of social solidarity. Citizens understand their expected paths in these eras, and most members of society know the acceptable behaviours—whether they like them or not. However, when segments of society cannot see where they fit in, what the rules are, or what the socially agreed-upon answers to life's big questions are, then, like a dormant disease, the ever-present potential cult leaders take hold and lure followers to their causes.
These determined self-designated gurus seem always to be lurking on the sidelines ready to step in and offer answers to life's problems. They claim they have the only and sure way of life. They induce people to follow them by touting a special mission and special knowledge. The special mission is to preach the contents of a supposedly "secret" learning, which the leaders assert can only be revealed to those who join them.
